...the classifieds.
What a "Sunday" thing this is! But, now that we have canceled our subscription to the paper paper (as opposed to the online version) this is the final Sunday I will hear:
1. Here's one...3500 SF, 5 bedrooms, $425,000 and so on and so forth
2. Now, here's job you might like...Rochester Police officer,Starbucks manager @ the Hilton, Volunteer Coordinator @ UIS, transport driver @ APL. All of those involve really odd hours and mediocre pay. The day may come though. I've thought it would be fun to Georgette Plimpton. If you don't know what that means, Google "George Plimpton".
3. Mary Worth's comic is more than her saying "Hmmm, should I stay with Jeff?"
4. Here's a coupon for (something we don't need, wouldn't use, can't afford, and from a place we never shop).
5. We missed seeing such and such. As usual the notification of some funky event that we really might have gone to is published as a report of how under-attended it was.
6. Today the advertisements weight 2 lbs. and the paper 5 ounces.
7. Are you through with this?

No! I want my paper paper! There's other things I'll give up. It's hard to read it online over a bowl of cereal.
But it is such a waste. We trash so much and there is so little of any value in it. We'll see how we do. We've broken the "cruise the catalog" habit, now this. If we are not at each other's throats and not glued to the so-called tv news we'll have kicked the habit successfully.
This question of ending a subscription to the paper has been on my to-do list for six years, yet I can't bring myself to end the misery. There is some wheat amongst the chaff, and for that reason, the little gal in her red pickup still flings the news in our yard each morning. Then again, getting the paper may be a lot like this comment, not worth reading.
In today's paper the ZITS comic talks about reading the paper online. I agree with the cartoonist on this point. There are websites I won't stay at long enough to read what I came for because of jumping, spinning, flashing ads. Those wrinkle ladies are currently my least faves.
